Well done mate. 8-)

I presume they are the same each week - a Nike Goodie Bag (cap, towel and balls from memory) and a 1hr golf lesson at Oulton Hall. The goodie bag must be collected from their pro shop.

Haven't been down to pick mine up yet, but confirmation came through about a month after I won it (about 10 weeks ago) so you may be in for a little wait.

Does anyone fancy joining us for a golf trip to Oulton to play and collect prizes - they do an overnight special for around £100

Toffee and I are definitely doing it.

Chris- you may need to decide which clubs to use by the end of the year ;0)

Sounds good to me Paddy - don't live a huge distance away so may not be an over-nighter, but I am willing to have my arm twisted. That said, there may not be room in my car for an overnight bag with all the clubs in there. :wink:

Away for 3 weeks late Oct/early Nov, but can do most dates outside that with a bit of notice - just let me know and I'll try to shuffle things about. 8-)

2 Carnoustie Duffer George Wylie 875
3 Fairway To Hell David Lowe 860
4 Hatfields Hackers David Hatfield 805

That's the table for the Yorkshire Evening Post - use yorkshire-evening-post-fantasy-golf-2010-t71629.html instead.

Top 10 for the Yorkshire Post was:

R. Team Pts.
1 Youve been Billied Billy Hayes 860
2 North Duffield Whites simon coward 860
3 FISO Chris King 860
4 secondchance! Julie Cadman 821
5 shafts shankers gary shaft 790
6 VW Golf Geoff Pryor 790
7 Gutter Putter Kevin Muir 787
8 The Flag Of Dodd Nigel Dodds 780
9 Forever England Chris Younger 780
10 Pamik Pamela Green 780

Guess I didn't enter my team soon enough. Prefer the longer lesson anyway which El Pap will no doubt let me win.

I have a feeling I may have scooped both weekly and monthly prizes - in the "Top 5" box on the front page I am showing as top for the week, which by definition would make me the monthly winner too.

Let's hope I can make it a hat-trick :P

Confirmation:

Yorkshire Post wrote:
Fantasy Golf: Monty was pleased with Molinari's win, but were you?

Date: 30 August 2010

EDOARDO MOLINARI'S stunning victory at Gleneagles catapulted him into the Ryder Cup team, but what did it do for your Fantasy Golf team?

The Italian led a points-scoring bonanza across the two tournaments at Gleneagles and in New York with no less than eight Fantasy Golfers earning top-10 finishes on either side of the Atlantic.

Martin Laird was a big scorer at the Barclays, as were Dustin Johnson and Steve Striker, while in Scotland, Miguel Angel Jimenez and Simon Dyson landed the big points.

Chris Younger retains his overall lead in the year-long rankings while it was Simon Holman who wins the weekly prize, whose points haul also saw him finish August as the top manager of the month.

I was very pleased to switch in E Molinari last minute only to see Forever England did exactly the same thing 10 minutes later. :shock: Obviously, a massive coincidence :?

Technically speaking, if your change was last minute then your rival was nine minutes too late.

I'll get my coat :oops:

Such is the nature of open view teams though, isn't it?

Ironically, this one was a co-incidence (was never going to miss the 50% bonus on offer was I!) ..... most of the others haven't been though. :wink:

Left the door open for you with Mickelson and Els and may give you a chance or two in the next few weeks. 8-)

Ha, thanks for reminding me Shaun - doing my best to lose it (or you could say make it exciting down the stretch - you choose :wink: ). There is a little while to go yet, but if momentum is anything I've lost already...

Very well played to Chris , hope you get on with the new set of clubs :wink:

Commisserations to Nigel , harsh that there's no 2nd prize :( Like the new team name by the way :lol:

And congrats to the not too insignificant other FISOers in the top 25 as well :)

El_Pappje even had the cheek to walk away with the final weekly prize too :P

Enjoyed this comp, looking forward to next year.
